Greetings Owatonna American Legion Family,

We have past members that have been dropped from our membership roles at the State level for not keeping their Legion membership up to date.  Due to rising postal costs, you will no longer receive a Post newsletter after this one if your membership is delinquent.. Please renew your membership!

 No meals before the Post meetings, no Tuesday night Veterans meals, and no Friday night food June to August.  Meals will start again in September.
